Hello! It's my first year! Friends somewhere? :)

January 1st, 2013
Hi everybody! I'm Barbara, from Argentina and this is the first year I'm trying the 365 Day Project. I think it's much fun and I also hope it helps me to succeed in the field of perseverance and encourage me to keep going and finding ways to get some quality shots.

I'm looking for friends who can give advice, first years or simply anyone wanting to share. Let's make this a wonderful project together! ( ´ ∇ ` )

Hi Barbara, first year for me too. I am actually doing 3 albums this year!! Starting strong and hopefully will continue for the duration of a year. 1) A profile of my hubby as I want to view how I person ages over the course of a year. 2) Things that catch my attention for the day. 3) Things that relate to my business.

Hi Welcome to you all. I joined in October, and I have had only super encounters on this site. I think because everything is public for all to see, it keeps the "nasties" out, and the community is good at regulating itself. The experts, and there are a significant number, are more than willing to help out. On "discussions" there is a link where you can ask the community to look at your stuff and comment Tthese can be a little harsher criticisms, but you will sure learn a lot here if you listen. I have learned so much I cannot tell you.

The more people you follow, the more people will follow you back. Look at my "follows" and "followers" for a little start. It is not a huge list. And then look at their follows and followers, and you have a cascading effect.the more you actively participate, the more feedback you will get on your work and the more you will get from this site, It's up to you. Hang in there!

Usually people will not harshly evaluate your work (except if you ask for it). If they don't like it, they generally just skip it. So if someone seems to be "criticizing" it is usually because they see potential in your work or shot, and want to emphasize something perhaps you have overlooked and can correct easily.

Welcome to 365, and great shooting in 2013!

January 2nd, 2013
@frankhymus What kind words and how true they are. :)
January 3rd, 2013
@corrigantriesagain Hello, Corrigan!! Thankyou for your nice words and the good wishes. I'll try to take many photos from my city, and if I happen to go on holidays, it'd be great, so I can upload more from my country!

@heidihon Thank you! I wish you luck this time, so you will have strenght to finish it! I hope to do well in my first try, it'd be wonderful!

@boomersworld This is one of my goals for 2013 as well! I had this project in mind since long ago and never found courage to start it - it seemed too big. But I finally decided to try and people here is very nice! Happy to support, too!

@veli34 You are right, indeed. 'Challenge' and 'photography' sound good together, and I think that's what this project does, as well. Not only pushing us to create but to keep on going for a whole year. Sounds exciting!

@sjwyatt30 Even if this is my first year, welcome! 2 days here and it already feels like home thanks to the people being so nice and understanding. I'm looking foward to this as well!

@mandydepanda Wow, you have such a huge goal! I think I just commented your 'husband folder', thinking it was the only one, but I actually see you have others! I believe you can do that by upgrading your account. Sounds very interesting, I'm going to check the rest of your folders too! Thank you for your time commenting!

@soupermario Hello! This newbie hopes to enjoy the time around! It's already a lovely place and I've been here for 2 days! :D

@istacy1011 Thank you very much, Stacy! Hope to enjoy the ride!

@sunnygreenwood You're very nice, Anne. Thank you for your words!

@astevens29 Thank you, Amy! Let's try to reach the goal of 365 pictures!

@frankhymus Your words were inspiring and kind, I can only imagine the resources and feedback people can get from this site, but that's just because I am new. I am sure everybody is able to win, if they ask and share in a nice way. It's good to hear more people is here to help and to give advice. I thank you for taking the time to write those lines to me and the rest who posted here, they were warm and felt secure. Makes me to spend all the day here, but I guess I have to live a bit of 'boring' like too ;)

Thanks again for your advice and I wish you a happy shooting too, and strenght to finish your project when your time comes.

@david68 Thank you, David! I also like your work pretty much!

@lifewithmyfujifilm Hi, Angie! I replied another post of yours, but I take this new chance to thank you for your words. I thought it was a nice way to start 2013, even if it was a bit seen already... I always wanted to try that kind of photo!

@ididntdoit87 I think I'm already meeting awesome people, I never expected someone replying this post I created. Only shows how lovely and understanding this community is. Looking forward to this year 2013 here!

@iridecentburden Happy New Year, Nicole! I hope your past try ended up right. Good to hear you are trying this again, let's share the journey!

@eeniemoni Hello, Moni! You're right, the community is lovely so far and makes you want to learn as soon as possible! Looking forward to it, as well!

@mizhayz Wish you the best in your project! It seems many people joined this year and I'm thrilled to be part of this. The community has been amazing and it's only been 2 days, I can't wait to finish my first month of shooting!

@annaruth Hi, Anna! Thank you for your nice words. I'm already loving the site and I believe everybody is awesome! - They all seem to be, even the avatars you see from far! I'm happy I decided to try this year. Good luck with your 3rd year! Looking forward to your work!

@stephkthomson Good to hear you're taking photography, Stephanie! I'm an audiovisual student and we also have photography subjects. I'm also planning to take them all, since it's something I really like. Looking forward to push myself in this even more! And add fun to it!

@distractiondujour Thanks, Katie! Looking forward to your work, too!

@mamalola Wish you luck, Lola! Hope we can reach our 365-D goal!

@calm Hello, Cathy! Thank you for your advice! I'll browse and see. I'm sure there are tons of beautiful images out there, I'd really like to spend all my day here, but I guess I can't ;) I already love it here!



Thanks to everybody! I'm following all of you, so wish you luck and strenght. May 2013 be your year of shooting and also, your year concerning personal matters! ✿

Hi Barbara! I am new as well. Can't wait to see some of your shots from Argentina! I think this project sounds amazing and I am hoping to learn a lot about my camera and my style. Fingers crossed I stay encouraged to do it all year because I think a little piece of every day would be amazing to look back at
